PROBLEM SOLVING WITH LENSES
 
Sooner or later every lenswearer gets a light inflammation, because a lens is a extra loading. Mosty your eyes can take this very well, but they always over react on pain, redness and tears, so you can get help on time. Respect the signs and try toe apply a treatment, according to this "6-step systeem":
 
 
-STEP 1: LET YOUR LENSES OUT FOR 1 OR MORE DAYS

Your eyes heal very fast, afterwards you can wear your lenses normaly. Look if your lens isn't abnormal dirty or damaged. If you have 2 same lenses, you can switch the lens from side: if your eye problems are caused by your lens, your other eye will get irritated to ! Better change the lens or clean complete.

 
-STEP 2: WHEN THE IRRITATION COMES BACK REGULAR, YOU HAVE TO APPLY SOME TRICKS

a) comfortdrops BLINK = artificial tears - you can use this limitless.
b) More expensive Blink contacts and Blink intensive tears stay longer! 
c) light inflammation inhibition drops based on cortisone (such as De Icol) can be prescribed by your ophtalmologist or you family doctor. 
     * inflammation gives more mucous in your eyes, that makes your lens dirty faster. Dirty lenses give more inflammation. So you get a vicious circle, that gets worse!  Therefore : know when you take your lenses out you should rub the lens 10 seconds with your caring system. Your lens will stay clean and give less problems. Also the crust on your eyelashes should better be removed.
   STEP 3: THE CLEANING CAN HAPPEN INTENSER:

Adding Blink-N-Clean (while you wear lenses!): gets fat and albumen off your lens, this will improve the moisturize of the lens.
Adding enzyme-tablets (at 14days or 7days intervals), who get off persistent albumen of your lens. In the morning you'll better rub the lens so you can remove the dirt of your lens!     
Adding an extra clean product (such as optifree daily cleaner): several times a week or daily - afterwards you have to rinse (with  Lensplus or Saline or Viapack) .


STEP 4: A ALL-IN-ONE CONSERVATION FLUIDS IS CHEAPER AND MOSTLY GOOD ENOUGH FOR MONTHLY LENSES (SOMETIMES ALSO FOR YEARLY LENSES)


People who have regular problems can transfer to a oxygenwatersystem, this doesn't contain any preservative (you can't get allergic to it) and it cleans very strongt: Examples: Oxysept / Easysept / Aosept

STEP 5: SOMETIMES THE PROBLEMES CAN BE CAUSED BECAUSE OF THE LENS


You can change the type of your lenses : Superlenses. This are lenses that get dirty less quick, that let through more oxygen and hold more water. 
Quick replace-lenses: 14-daily lens or daily lenses (= soft lenses)
hard oxygen permeable lens:  sucks up less tears and dirt - a hard lens is better than a soft lens because they don't suck up much dirt and tears!
   * you can also wear your lenses now and then. When you wear your lenses less than 2 times a week, it is cheaper to buy daily lenses!!
   
STEP 6: WEAR  YOUR GLASSES MORE OR LASERTREATMENT


When you realy realy realy no longer want to wear lenses you can wear your glasses or you can choose a permanent treatment such as lasertreatment - this goes very well for myopia (with or without astigmatism) till -10. It is a painless treatment, that can be done at both eyes at the same time. The next day the patient can go to work again. costprice: 1500 € /eye .
